Two new coronavirus cases on Kefalonia yesterday according to EODY.

Kef fire risk 22/10/21: Low

Today's bank rate:
1 GBP = € 1.1518
1 USD = € 0.8343

Based on Alpha Bank exchange rates, these are widely used by exchange agencies in Greece.
Other banks likely to offer a different rate which may be marginally higher or lower.
Banks and foreign exchange offices normally charge standard 2% commission.
You may get a better rate changing your holiday money in advance at e.g the
Post Office.
NB: some f-ex agencies advertise "No Commission".
Invariably, they deduct commission before they (don't) advertise the rate.
Foreign exchange offices are businesses, not charities.


Ten day weather forecast for Kefalonia:
This is an overall forecast, due to the mountainous terrain the weather can be very localised.

Greece Hopes to Become Frontrunner in Sustainable Tourism

Greece is setting ambitious goals hoping to become a leader in sustainable tourism development, said Tourism Minister Vassilis Kikilias during the 1st Athens ESG & Climate Crisis Summit by Kathimerini this week.

The target, Kikilias said during a panel discussion on “Climate Crisis and the European Green Deal” is to slash by 50 percent plastic waste found in the sea and a ban on fishing in 10 percent of the country’s waters.
